OK trying to start my BF4 and I'm getting this error saying that " msvcr100.dll is missing " getting the same issue with some other games too..can I get some advice on how to fix this please ?

thanx :)
 
msvcr100.dll is a part of Microsoft Visual C++ and is required to run programs developed with Visual C++. Some games or applications may need the file in the game/application installation folder. Copying it from Windows systemfolder to the install-folder of the game/application should fix that problem.

All required files should be there if you installed it properly. What exactly is your setup? If you had the game on a separate drive/partition and re-installed windows, you can't expect the game to work just by launching it.
 
The only thing I have done in the last week is install the new CoD game and the new Titanfall game...thats all I have done , I have not re-installed or un-installed anything, but I am also getting a C++ issue when trying to play the new CoD game

That's odd. If any software installs different C++ versions, they should happily sit side by side and not break anything.

You could try the latest runtimes from here and see if they help.

It wouldn't hurt to install both 32 and 64bit. Even with a 64bit OS, you still might need 32bit for 32bit apps.
 
Initially it'll probably break more than it fixes but I'd be tempted to remove all versions of visual C++, then probs reinstall the latest from MS and/or do a repair/verify on your games and get them to reinstall it.

Most games also have the version they shipped with in their install directory somewhere. So for BF1 for example the install packages for VC can be found in...

(drive):\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 1\__Installer\vc\

if you want to re-do them manually.
 
Does BF4 come with any redistributables? If so install those as they'll be the right version that you need for it.
 
Yeah I've done all that has been suggested , but no joy as yet....so either I think , new windows or kill the pc with a trip through the air at speed :)

So as I dont have a copy of Windows 10...can I use the creation tool to put Windows back on ?...as I'm using Windows 10....have been for ages

and to think this all started after I had installed the new CoD game lol
